Before the iPhone came we actually had replaceable batteries on most phones and it worked really well. Battery contacts degrading is definitely not a problem for a phone that has a lifetime of maximum of like 7 years.
Yes waterproofing becomes harder but it is not impossible.
Manufacturing costs are also not an issue since most phones have margins beyond 300%.
But why this one? How do you pick a random Twitter account to check if it's Elon's sock puppet?

Surely there must have been a reason to specifically check this one?
> Efficiency and scalability have nothing to do with "upholding one's commitment to privacy". This shows they're insincere.

"private, efficient, and scalable" means "private AND efficient AND scalable". What makes you think they are being insincere about the privacy aspect?
The inquisition being as bad as you think it was was mostly protestant porn/propaganda. Protestant countries burned far more people and for centuries after the catholics had stopped.
"Data point" is simply this - Emacs and Vim have seen way too many popular editors and IDEs over the years and VSCode is just another thing in a long list of "contenders" - Brief, Wordstar, Borland Sprint/Turbo Pascal/varios 'Builders', QEdit, TextPad, Norton, Delphi, Adobe shit, Macromedia stuff, Microsoft crap, Eclipse, Netbeans, etc.

Emacs proceeds strategically, not tactically. Even though it outlived so many different editors it was only a single decade, a point in history when it was considered kinda, sorta mainstream, the rest of its lifetime it wasn't.

Emacs is just like Lisp itself - it never dies, and never gets to be hugely popular. Anyone wishing either speedy death or widespread popularity for Lisp (and Emacs) will likely remain disappointed. Those who value Lisp and Emacs will continue using them, even decades from now. Those who never learn to appreciate either - will keep ignoring them.
Agreed, but on the other hand I never understood the business model of the for-profit NPM Corporation, or why Microsoft would buy them out, so there has to be some angle here. Maybe they cannot solve all of "the supply chain", but like 80% of it, yeah sure, sign here. Debian can package that too, whatever, they will get the F500s.
The weird thing to me is that I don't see this happening at the large FAANG companies - referrals don't seem to move the needle whatsoever anymore, and not just for me but for quite a few of the people in my network.

On the flipside I'm not finding good resources to find startups to apply to that don't have hundreds of applicants already. There's no good answer the market has come up with as far as I can tell, so everything just gets worse for everyone as a result.
Apple seems to be the best option here too. They seem to have put in a huge effort to provide features people demand (searching by landmarks in this case) without having to share your private data.

It would have been so much easier for them to just send the whole photo as is to a server and process it remotely like Google does.
Why do we still build new remotely controlled things and then skip security? Like when was this ever a good idea?
It is rarely used now days in my experience and I have never used a flat file that is over a decade old. Storage used to be expensive so this would ensure that old data got purged. Most flat files are useless after a month or less. Even if a mistake did happen, most MVS shops have pretty good backups.

Also now days, data files that haven't been accessed for some period of time usually gets sent to tape/cartridge in some automated system like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape_library#/media/File:Stora...
Time Machine does not backup your desktop and other spots that might be essential in case of needing a backup. iCloud does.

I know users who would prefer not to trust Apple for anything, and only pay for and use iCloud to backup the Desktop [and similar locations]. If they were to hear that their opt-in for iCloud means that Apple starts copying random things, they would not be happy.

[OT, I use Arq. But admit that iCloud is simpler, and it is not apples to apples.]

IMO, the fact that Apple backs up your keychain to the Mothership; and that this is a "default" behavior that will re-enable itself when shut off, reflects an attitude that makes me very distrustful of Apple.
I also use an Nuphy air 75, it’s really nice. Would upgrade to a mechanical, 75%, low profile, split, Hall effect, wireless, kmq-via keyboard but haven’t found it yet…
There's no section 3.6.

It doesn't say only a few hours.

The optimum behaviour under the law is not to show a cookie banner. It's not to collect copious amounts of data.

You only had 8 years to learn about the law, and you still remain willingly ignorant and misinformed about it.
I work in an industry where this practice is universal. That said, why don't more of these companies complaining on this thread try that model? I know the reason: Cost. Instead of wasted hours of their staff's time, they are faced with a realistically large bill that most managers would like to deny. For me, head hunters find me on LinkedIn.
When I use the apple cable it charges to 100% with no quibbles
One would think so. Unless there are programs that pay you for sick patients (risk adjustment) and you control how much you are willing to spent on a patient.

> Targeted approaches don't work with online dating

What would a targeted approach to online dating be?

From GP:

> spend a week or so deeply researching where I want to work and figure out how to get there

Replace "where I want to work" with "who I want to date" and it sounds concerning.
In the OP article it seems more like users demand to search their photos by text, and Apple has put in a huge effort to enable that without gaining access to your photos.
I might be wrong but most optimizing compilers will treat "if false" and the following code as dead and remove it.
Lol, they keep threatening that but they still like the money of the europeans.
More than that, the incentives are inversely aligned - companies want to hire a "good match" for as little as possible, and applicants want to be hired at the maximum possible rate.
Relationships between an individual and a corporation are fundamentally asymmetrical. They can only be made equal by heavily favouring the single human side.

I don't know if the level of bureaucracy where that decision was made is really impacted by the leadership changing. Egypt continues to make super short notice timezone changes as recently as last year. (Just at least not 3 days notice this most recent time around)
How do they contact you? Email, social media, or LinkedIn? If LinkedIn, it is definitely not free. Recruiters pay a hefty fee for the right to contact people outside their network.
Why should we? The difference is a drop on the ocean for the climate. While choosing convenience/price has a immediate impact on yourself.
The rational choice at the individual level is not to care for such things. Actions has to be taken at the political level.
For the folks who don't care for video, it's about the history behind Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and how it changed the process of DNA testing.
The phone has intelligence to detect things that look like landmarks, and does cropping/normalization and converts to a mathematical form.

Apple has a database trained on multiple photos of each landmark (or part of a landmark), to give a likelihood of a match.

Homomorphic encryption means that the encrypted mathematical form of a potential landmark from the phone can be applied to the encrypted set of landmark data, to get an encrypted result set.

The phone can then decrypt this and see the result of the query. But anyone else sees this as noise being translated to new noise, including Apple's server.

The justification for this approach is storage - the data set of landmarks can only get larger as the data set gets more comprehensive. Imagine trying to match photos for inside castles, cathedrals and museums as examples.
> Writers seem to love it.

Of course, how can you not love it? All the tools you need for writing are at your fingertips. You can have a thesaurus, spellchecking, translation and search, dictionaries, etymology lookup, word counter, Flesch-Kincaid reading ease tester, ChatGPT, Anthropic and other models, dictation, formatter, converter, exporter and so much more. Why would anyone ever exposed to that power willingly part with it?
Its not that. It shows a message about 'non compatible cable'. And when I use the apple cable it quite happily charges to 100% with no quibbles. And the non apple cable is a good quality one that works fine with everything else. I suspect the ipad has been designed to be deliberately fussy.

I wish it would. Perhaps it will with rising costs of living and housing.
If it cannot be linked to you, it's no longer PII, and doesn't require consent.

As easy as that.
If you don’t trust Apple to do what they say they do, you should throw your phone in the bin because it has total control here and could still be sending your data even if you opt out.

I don’t really care what is in Elons heart. The lesson learned is the same regardless: ignore the nonsense gadgetbahns dreamed up by business people and focus on the real proven technologies in use already around to world.
Its not the setting. It charges fine to 100% with the same wall-wart and a tiny usb-a to usb-c adapter then the apple cable. But not happy with my regular usb-a to usb-c cable (that works fine with everything else). Or any of the other cables in my house. A message pops up about non-compatible cable. I suspect the ipad has been designed to be deliberately fussy. I'm in europe, if that makes any difference.

Requiring building app before having a preview and then waiting between 10 seconds to a minute on every change is what you call joy?
Recently saw an AS/400 on Facebook Marketplace. I was very tempted to pick it up, but I am trying to reduce AND knew dang well I would have no idea how to interact with the thing.

I recall in about 2009 working on a project where the clients inventory system ran on an AS/400 and I knew literally nothing about IBM mainframes at the time. All we wanted was them to publish a simple JSON API we could poll hourly to update the front end we were building. In a conference call with umpteen of their engineers, they basically told us that was impossible. I thought this was ridiculous, but they were insistent.

Their counter proposal was that they would automate emailing us updates and we could parse and process those. I still have no clue how that could be easier for them but it sure would have been more work and infrastructure for us!

Eventually after literally weeks of back and forth they finalized landed on letting us use FTP to read hundreds of XML files they would generate nightly. They were often mildly malformed/improperly encoded. It was simpler to deal with that than ask them to fix it. It was not a very fun project, but a major learning experience looking back.

I was a young hotshot who had only recently been promoted to lead developer, and having to interact with these people who clearly thought I was dumb for not knowing anything about IBM mainframes certainly knocked me down a peg. Kind of humbling to see you don't know what you don't know once in a while.
No. TTF/OTF support for widgets.
C++ may run in more places than Rust but that's nothing to do with how good the tooling is. C++ runs everywhere AND its tooling is abysmal.
First class varies by train. Most often, though, it means fewer seats packed into the same space; for instance, often coach has a 2/2 configuration (2 seats on each side), while first class has a 2/1 configuration. First class also more often has seats facing each other with a table.
Why are sports teams important signals?
I tried phone, similar. I guess it kind of does keep rotating, but you can’t see it. Colors fade faster than flow.

If you dab a finger in the stream at right angles to the flow you made, the splash flows the expected way, but maybe slower than water.

It would be good to visualize any flow. And also to respond to device orientation so you can feed the resonance :)
As I've explained here [1], when it comes to this topic (software), this take is on the level of "trickle-down economics". A good dose of protectionism means most people benefit, a very clear net positive for society as a whole.

Yes, that’s true it’s a round screw on cap on the torch.

However, my casio G-Shock often comes with me and it’s only protected by a flat surface pushing on a gasket through 4 tiny screws.. the battery inside is a coin shape.

So I still think that’s an excuse.
I'm an engineer at a company of about 70 people (about half of that engineers), and I personally review most applications to our engineering roles. About 60-70% of applications we receive are low-effort or automated spam of the kind generated by the author. We have screening questions that ask to describe a personal experience in your own words, specifically without LLM, and yet almost half of the applications we get have LLM answers, or a cover letter that is just an LLM-generated reflection of the job ad. Regularly the same candidate applies to all engineering roles, and then a few weeks later again, and again.

We use Recruitee, and ironically it doesn't have good automatic ways of filtering out the kind of spam generated by the author. On busy weeks, I spend about an hour per day screening and responding to applications. About half that is wasted on low-effort applications and automated spam generated by people like the author, and a significant part of that are repeat offenders. Nowadays I send one warning, and then I ask Recruitee support to ban the person, which due to implementation reasons on Recruitee's end prevents the person from applying at any company using Recruitee. It's harsh and I often feel bad about it, but after having to deal with this nonsense for multiple years now, I'm so sick of it, and I just ran out of patience.
Small and simple!
I love these types of programs.

This line of thinking ignores a whole bunch of legitimate reasons why people knowledgeable enough to root their phone still choose not to, not least of which is that I have to exchange trusting a large corporation with a financial incentive to keep my device secure (regulations, liability) with an Internet anon with incentive to do the opposite (no direct compensation, but access to banking apps on the user’s device).

Even in the case where I’m willing to risk trusting the developer, they have literally zero resources to pen test the software I’ll be running my banking apps on, and in the case of Android roms need to run known vulnerable software (out-of-support source-unavailable binary blobs for proprietary hardware that were never open-sourced).

The same argument was made about TPM’s on PC’s and against Windows 11 for years (that they should just be disabled/sidestepped). It only holds water if you don’t understand the problem the device solves for or have a suitable alternative.
How do you get a margin over 100%?
Though being able to filter out talks by language might still be useful, because there are enough non-German talks to make that worthwhile. (Also for people who only speak, say, German and Polish, and might not want to bother with the English talks.)
Can you tell an iPhone to only charge to 80%? I only have the “optimized charging” option, which is the delayed one.

Last time I tried and iirc, lazyvim would print out all sorts of various errors within seconds of using it for very basic things, which is enough for me to give up on most tools unless they are forced onto me. That said I have yet to find a proper code editor for my needs which is not exactly dev ; so far I settle with plain vim.

If beating SEO was something a company with a different algorithm could do, then it would have happened by now. Google remains the default search engine because the alternatives are perhaps even more susceptible to SEO than Google, so there just isn't the motivation to use them.

Every euro/yen/.. spent by German/Japanese/.. residents on US tech is one that goes to big tech. Every minute spent consuming US tech (Meta et al) is one spent not consuming something that benefits local society.

Enormous net negative, and I'm lucky enough to be part of the poster child society that shows just how much better the alternative is: South Korea. And even here people still use lots of US tech (Instagram is huge), just much less of it, in every case at massive net benefit to Korean society as a whole.

> Emacs is actually rather slow.

It depends on so many different things. Aside from platform specifics (sure, it can be painfully slow on Windows), Emacs might feel slow for various reasons, but it doesn't have to be. Built-in Profiling tools are godsend and if used properly Emacs can be quite impressively fast. My Emacs starts quickly (in less than a second), and it is very pleasantly snappy.
This is part of the fucking problem. It started with recruiters using AI to filter candidates, candidates caught on and now use AI to massively apply to jobs, overflowing the response rate, so recruiters have no choice but to use AI. Meanwhile I've manually applied to over a thousand jobs that I am explicitly qualified for, I have 25 years of experience, I have tried writing resumes and cover letters specifically for the job I am applying to and I maybe got 5 calls back.

This timeline fucking blows.
The CCC conference is widely regarded in the US, and has significant relevance there.
How would you explain client side vectorization, differential privacy and homomorphic encryption to a layman in a single privacy popup so that they can make an informed choice?

Or is it better to just trust that mathematics works and thus encryption is a viable way to preserve privacy and skip the dialog?
Give this a day to settle. There's a lot of misinformation out there.

NYT: "Its landing gear appeared not to have dropped down from under the plane, and the flaps on its wings apparently were not activated for landing, Mr. Tonkin added. “The aircraft was essentially in a flying configuration,” he said. That meant the plane was likely “flying faster than it would normally be in a landing situation.”"

That's consistent with the video. The aircraft is sliding down the runway, lined up with the runway, going too fast, wheels up, flaps up, possibly still under power.

"Why" is days away.

Very wealthy people have access to very exclusive and potentially unethical and/or illegal capabilities. Many do not think they are bound to the same rules as the rest of society. Some are probably not.

Given no further context, when I hear "portable battery" I think of a battery that is portable in itself. An iPhone is portable, but the battery embedded in it isn't. Contrast the battery pack that something like an ICOM walkie talkie would have, which is portable in itself.

Other ways to see it: An Electron program is portable, a .exe program is not portable; they are both programs. A stick of RAM is portable, soldered RAM on a motherboard or in a CPU is not portable; they are both RAM.
